She is currently under supervision to become a Licensed Professional Counselor. Kallan works with adults, couples, and teens. This year, she plans to complete EMDR training as well as Gottman Level I training. One quote Kallan particularly likes about therapy comes from Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by psychotherapist Lori Gottlieb:
“If my training has taught me anything, it’s that we grow in connection with others. I believe that of all my credentials, my most significant is that I’m a card-carrying member of the human race. I know first-hand how hard it is to look at ourselves from another person’s perspective, to see ourselves in ways that we haven’t before—but also how rewarding and liberating this process can be. It turns out that the fear of our feelings is often scarier than the feelings themselves.”
Kallan and her husband Dalton live in Troy, Tennessee with their son and two mini Australian Shepherds. In her free time, she enjoys traveling, music, reading, and writing. Kallan is available by telehealth and in-person.
